Oh, with the headphones it is just you listening to it, then your fine. Heavy medal is a little strong for my taste but at least you are considerate toward others. Your fine.
I am an avid rock fan and listen to it for at LEAST an hour a day... I put it on when im clearing up or chilling on the bed or when im travelling on the train i'll be listening to music for hours on end playing games on my iPod touch.
It sounds like you're normal to me...
If you're listening to heavy or angry music to hide from something or help vent, maybe there's a worry.
However I listen to heavy stuff to psyche me up for a night out.. when im getting ready i'll dance around the room. It gets me going.
Or sometimes if im sad or angry, it can offer me the kind of solace that I need at the time.
Music is therapeutic! Dont forget that...
Oh plus, its always good to be into more mellow stuff... you never know when you want to listen to mellow stuff.
Last time I shuffled my iPod it went something like 'Dreamtheater - Florence and the Machine - Genesis'. Niiiiice
Haha, that's not too much at all. I listen to 7, 8 hours of the stuff a day- it hasn't done me any harm. As long as you don't be an a*s towards others and don't let your taste in music reflect your personality, you're fine. It also helps to deiversify your taste in music!
For example, I'm a huge fan of bands like It Dies Today, Trivium, Avenged Sevenfold, Devildriver etc... but I also LOVE Calvin Harris, Paramore, All Time Low and others :)
My point is... Listen to as much metal as you want. But keep in mind that there are other genres - try exploring them !
ha ha Wolfyy you do NOT support metal you only listen to lame commerical music that sucks if you liked metal you would be telling me about Slayer,Megadeth,Death,Venom,Motorhead,Black Sabbath,Suffocation,Decapitated.
and to the person who started this thread, do you even listen to metal or is it filled with shit like Slipknot,korn,Bring Me the Horizon.

@ anal thrush- dude, if youre judging another man based on the level of metal he listens too...sounds like youre super insecure, and probably the one who needs to man up.
An hour a day isn't too bad. I like some songs, by that meaning 5% of heavy metal. 3% of that is Japanese Heavy metal. (What's Up, People by Maximum Hormone)
heavy metal is the closest resemblement to classical style orchestrated music of a band nature. most of the time a lot of time thought and actual musical talent from actual musicians who actually know how to play their instruments. basically we metal heads are generally picky and way opinionated because we hold our music to a higher standard. at least i do. however whatever makes you happy dude. wether it be garth brooks or slayer its no ones deal but yours dude. have a heavy metal christmas and a head bangin new year! oh and THE BIG FOUR ARE TOURING IN EUROPE. THOSE WHO ARENT AWARE THIS MEANS MEGADETH METALLICA SLAYER AND ANTHRAX WILL BE HEADLING THE SAME SHOW! JUNE 10. METAL HISTORY WILL BE MADE. YES I REPEAT DAVE MUSTAINE AND METALLICA WILL BE SHARING A STAGE! IVE WAITED MY WHOLE LIFE FOR THIS SHIT.
